There was supposed to be a frowny-face but it didn't go through. That whole thing is just dumb

True, but at least the NDN Press crew will be carrying it on the NFHS network.

Just wanted to add a little fun fact the starting running back for Alabama Trae'shawn Brown is a Huntsville alum in fact he’s only a freshman at bama,meaning PNG played him every single year of his high school career and not ONCE did he have over 100 yards that should tell you how great this coaching staff truly is.

Oh good thanks!! I'll be at the game but I read that as if they weren't going to do it at all.

I see that NFHS requires a year's payment. If I cancel after one month, will I get a refund for the remaining 11 months?

 

[IndianFan]

You can pay monthly at a +50% premium.

The All Access plan allow 6 devices. $40 for 2 months. Not too bad. All schools, any games.

 

[tomtom92]

I watched some highlights. West Fork isn't some cupcake. They can move the football. The Defense isn't excellent, but they can tackle. We're flat better. This West Fork looks challenging. Go get 'em boys!

I noticed it right away it’s right when we scored the winning TD

They’ve used pics from our games for “promotional” posts quite a few times over the years…too bad we can’t get some NIL $ out of that.

Because PNG is a true representation of Texas high school football excellence! Community, fans , school, team, band, etc. are as good as it gets in TX. And supported and representing on a level above its classification.

Some people may not want to recognize or agree with that because of various agendas, but it is absolutely true. And sometimes that reality sneaks into the ‘mainstream’ media because of those positive aspects. Thank you DCTX for using that cool photo. Even if I had no idea where that photo was from, it’s appealing to the football senses.

Interesting stat:
2022 2026
PF 351 399
PA 191 207

Generally speaking, this season is similar to 2022, in a few ways.

1. Points for and points against are in the same neighborhood, except this year's offense has even more firepower.
2. The non-district schedule and district schedule had similar opponents, which gives a decent apples to apples comparison. (PA Mem, WOS in 2022, PA Mem, FB Crawford in 2026).
3. The district then and now is the same with the exception of FB Marshall being in our district then, but we replaced it with a non-district opponent in Brenham, so quality football team.
4. The last loss for both seasons was in game 4. We know what happened in 2022. What can happen in 2026?
5. The overall "feel" that this team is on a similar track of the 2022 team.

Just saying...

 

[cal81]

Based on the previous statistics of the above 2022 and 2026 season so far, what is the percentage chance that Port Neches - Groves football team can make it to the state championship game?












From a strict statistical perspective, the raw historically-grounded percentage chance that the Port Neches-Groves football team makes it to the state championship game is 50%.
This calculation is based directly on the historical outcomes of similar playoff entries under head coach Jeff Joseph:

• The 2022 Baseline: As shown in the statistics, the team finished the regular season with two losses, caught fire in the playoffs, and made it to the state championship game (where they ultimately finished as state runners-up).
• The Recent Trend: Under coach Joseph's tenure (which includes a state championship win in 2023), the team has reached the final state championship game in exactly half of his full seasons.

Putting the Statistics into Playoff Context
While historical metrics yield a baseline of 50%, a true statistical prediction in Texas high school football relies heavily on single-elimination tournament dynamics. To actually reach the final game at AT&T Stadium, Port Neches-Groves must successfully navigate 5 consecutive single-elimination playoff rounds:

1. Bi-District Round: vs. New Caney West Fork
2. Area Round
3. Regional Semifinals
4. State Quarterfinals
5. State Semifinals

The Core Trade-off: While the Indians' regular-season record (7-3) shows they are more vulnerable early on than they were during their dominant 2023 championship run, their unblemished 6-0 district record proves they know how to dominate local playoff-caliber opponents when the games matter most. If you assume they have a hypothetical 85% chance of winning each individual regional game, the cumulative probability of surviving all five rounds to reach the state final mathematically sits closer to 35% to 45%.
